The struggle of BA post op day 6. Is it normal for the breasts to feel heavy, hard, and stiff?

lover101
I had my breast augmentation 6 days ago. Is it normal for the breasts to feel heavy, hard, and stiff? Sometimes i have burning sensations or sharp pain on the side of my boobs. Normal??? I know they are still new but im very paranoid that i will have capsular contracture. How soon can i feel they are part of my body? Right now they are still foreign objects and i feel very uncomfortable. At this point, i question myself if its worth it.
